COLLARBONES
Release new single
Don Juan

Electronica duo Collarbones are back with ‘Don Juan’, the first single taken from their debut album Iconography.

Set for release on 18 March 2011 via Two Bright Lakes / Remote Control, Iconography is an assured debut, full of confidence and brimming with ideas that pull in diverse influences from the experimental to the mainstream.

Travis Cook (Cyst Impaled) and Marcus Whale (Scissor Lock) formed Collarbones over the internet in late 2007, and within a few short weeks they had committed to a long-term music-making relationship. Since then they’ve divided time between Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne, playing shows with the likes of Samiyam, making mix tapes, covering Justin Bieber with great fondness and releasing the Pitchfork adored single ‘Beaman Park’ in 2010.


Iconography is an artefact of its mode of production, pieced together over the Internet. The pair shared files until instrumentals were at a point where Whale could lay down elegant RnB laden hooks over the chopped samples and digital soundscapes.


Stay tuned for album launch details!

First single taken from debut album Iconography

"A smooth stuttering jam..." Pitchfork

"Collarbones sure have a knack for making beautiful little monuments out of the otherwise transient noises that crisscross the ether" Mess & Noise


"Collarbones' minimalistic approach fits somewhere in sound between Yeasayer and Fuck Buttons, being two-man project covered in laptops and sample decks" Drum Media Sydney

"Warm beats, chiming effects and soulful vocal harmonies" Inpress, Time Off, Drum Media Sydney

"Collarbones is an Aussie electronic-experimental duo that understands how to sprinkle sunshine and good summer vibes through the use of chopped up and sampled vocals that would make Dam-Funk proud” Asian Man Dan


Collarbones - Iconography will be released on 18 March 2011 via Two Bright Lakes / Remote Control
